Limits of Indeterminant Forms

In this activity, students will graph f(x)=sin(x)/x in order to visually determine the limit as x approaches zero. They will confirm the answer numerically by tracing left and right limit points on a graph and looking at values in a table.

Pythagorean Proofs

In this activity, students will explore proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem. Students will explore the proof of the Pythagorean Theorem using area of squares, area of triangles and trapezoids, and by dissection. Students will then be asked to apply what they have learned about the Pythagorean Theorem.
